Album

Posts tagged Album

When we talk about an album, we can think of a collection of works by various authors or a book for collecting collectibles like stamps. From a musical perspective though we are talking about groupings of audio records. The word still stands these days long before a long-playing record existed where a band would release its yearly music pieces for us all. The album would always have art and sometimes lyrics contained in a gloriously colourful sleeve with the massive vinyl disk. The smell of the vinyl and freshly printed lyrics was enough to transport you to the groups world. Miles away from the world of streaming and downloading tracks...

Animation

Posts tagged Animation

Animation is a method in which objects are manipulated to appear as moving images. Our animations are made with JavaScript. The effect of  animation is achieved by a rapid succession of sequential objects that minimally differ from each other. For our site, animation is also prevalent in our worlds, games, motion graphics, user interfaces and visual effects.

Autumn

Posts tagged Autumn

Autumn, is one of the four temperate seasons outside the tropics and marks the transition from summer to winter, in September in the Northern Hemisphere or March in the Southern Hemisphere. Autumn is the season when the duration of daylight becomes noticeably shorter and the temperature cools, the day length decreases and night length increases as the season progresses towards the Winter. One of our favourite features in England is the striking change in colour for the leaves of deciduous trees as they prepare to shed. The cool weather and the gorgeous colours - what's not to like - And we don't even mention Halloween!!

Book

Posts tagged Book

A book is a medium for recording information in the form of writing or images, typically composed of many pages (made of papyrus, parchment, vellum, or paper) bound together and protected by a cover. The technical term for this physical arrangement is codex (plural, codices). In the history of hand-held physical supports for extended written compositions or records, the codex replaces its predecessor, the scroll. A single sheet in a codex is a leaf and each side of a leaf is a page.

Death

Posts tagged Death

Death is the permanent, irreversible cessation of all biological functions that sustain a whole living organism. It is an inevitable, universal process that eventually occurs in all living organisms. Something that is not considered a living organism, such as a computer or car, can be physically destroyed but is not said to die. What about the death of an idea or the death of a time in your life? In poetry we tend to read negative attitudes due to death’s associations with misery and grievance, this is not surprising.

Environment

Posts tagged Environment

Our natural environment encompasses all living and non-living things occurring naturally - and not artificial. The term is most often applied to the Earth because this is what really matters to us. This environment encompasses the interaction of all living species, climate, weather and natural resources that affect our survival and economic activity. In contrast to the natural environment is our built environment for keeping us alive and entertained.

Experience

Posts tagged Experience

Experience is the process of getting knowledge or skill from doing, seeing, or feeling things or something that happens to you that affects how you feel or makes you feel. After you have experienced something you can start to understand what it means. It is also used to determine whether you could be qualified to do something or provide answers to some question because of it. From a poetry perspective there are somethings in life we can never experience and so shouldn't worry about but leave the feelings to our imagination and words.

Fantasy

Posts tagged Fantasy

Fantasy is a special fiction for us, set in a fictional universe, often inspired by real-world myth and folklore. Its roots are in oral traditions, which then became fantasy literature and drama. We use it on our site for our worlds and stories. The fantasy genre predominantly features settings of a medieval nature. In its broadest sense, however, our fantasy consists of works from made-up ancient myths and legends to many recent and traditional ideas. More playful fantasies for us can be seen in our animated cartoons from all our ideas, themes and stories. These are scattered throughout the website.

Fear

Posts tagged Fear

Fear is an emotion induced by perceived danger or threat, which causes physiological changes and ultimately behavioural changes, such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events. Fear is closely related to the emotion "anxiety". Fear in us may occur in response to a certain stimulus occurring in the present, or in anticipation or expectation of a future threat perceived as a risk to you.

Game

Posts tagged Game

A game is a structured form of play, usually undertaken for enjoyment but also used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more often an expression of aesthetic elements. This distinction is not clear-cut on our website as some of our videos were created by game engines. Key components of games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction. Games generally involve competition, mental or physical stimulation, and often all three...

Isolation

Posts tagged Isolation

Isolation is the state of being in a place or situation that is separate from others. A poet both loves this kind of thing, to think and write, but eventually is sentenced to share their poems and so be released from the isolation. Simple things like the separating of ideas or memories from the emotions connected with them can be great tools for describing a desperate situation that will need to be resolved.

Map

Posts tagged Map

A map is a symbolic depiction emphasising relationships between elements of some space, such as objects, regions, or themes. We use Fantasy maps to describe worlds and fantasy stories. Although the earliest maps known are of the heavens, geographic maps of territory have a very long tradition and exist from ancient times. The word "map" comes from the medieval Latin Mappa Mundi, wherein mappa meant napkin or cloth and Mundi the world. Thus, "map" became the shortened term. Mark has seen a Mappa Mundi in Hereford England, a medieval treasure dating from 1300.

A photograph (also known as a photo, image, or picture) is an image created by light falling on a photosensitive surface, usually photographic film or an electronic image sensor, such as a CCD or a CMOS chip. Most photographs are now created using a smartphone/camera, which uses a lens to focus the scene's visible wavelengths of light into a reproduction of what the human eye would see.

Sound

Posts tagged Sound

Sound is a vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid. In human physiology and psychology, sound is the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain. Only acoustic waves that have frequencies lying between about 20 Hz and 20 kHz, the audio frequency range, can be heard by us humans. Different animal species have varying hearing ranges.

Story

Posts tagged Story

A story is a description of events that happened or that are invented not much else really is there? It's a tale of reality, prose or fiction that typically can be read or listened to in one sitting. Its also referred to as a narrative. A story is an account of a series of related events, experiences, or the like, whether true (episode, vignette, travelogue, memoir, autobiography, biography) or fictitious (fairy tale, fable, story, epic, legend, novel). Oral storytelling is the earliest method for sharing narratives. During most people's childhoods, stories are used to guide them on proper behaviour, cultural history and formation of communal identity and values. Stories are found in all forms of human creativity, art, and entertainment, including speech, literature, theatre, music and song, correspondence, journalism, film, television and video, video games, radio, game-play, unstructured recreation and performance in general, as well as some painting, sculpture, drawing, photography and other visual arts, as long as a sequence of events is presented.

Time

Posts tagged Time

Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, into the future. Time is a piece of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of events or the intervals between them, and to quantify rates of change of quantities in reality or the conscious experience. Time is often referred to as a fourth dimension, along with three spatial dimensions.

A tool is an object used to extend the ability of a person to modify features of the surrounding environment. In theory, then we can always say our minds are tools. In our case, we will suggest that a tool is something that can help the user achieve a given result. These are "soft" tools, unlike a knife or fork.

Track

A single stream of recorded sound with no location in a sound field. Although the term track has historically been used in the context of fixed media, e.g., "a four-track tape," we focus on the processed signal and not the storage medium. Our use for a track is in the context of multi-track recording sessions where we produce two guitar tracks, a drum track, and a vocal track, for later mixing into a stereo recording for release.

Travel

Posts tagged Travel/Journeys

Travel is to go from one place to another, typically over a distance of some length. Travel inevitably involves a journey and can be physical or spiritual or logical. One could be travelling from place to place, or be remodelling in some significant way. The journey might be somewhere specific in this universe, or somewhere less material, such as towards immortality. Our take on travel considers all such methods.

Water

Posts tagged Water

Water is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odourless, and nearly colourless chemical substance. Water is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms. Water is vital for all known forms of life, even though it provides no calories or organic nutrients. Mystics have stirred the notion that water has memories and if so, what does this mean for us? In nature, water flows in smooth curves and may record its interaction with the surface stones, soil, plants,  and trees it comes in contact with carrying traces of their energy. Water also flows though us and all creatures and plants of the planet; it is our life and future and we should treat it like we do the air and earth, like a jealous guardian of a child or pet.
